It's strange that there are many Chinese Gold or Trustpass members claiming that they can export authentic NOKIA mobile phones in China. I called the sole/exclusive NOKIA manufacturer and distributor in China www.nokia.com.cn  ( free call: 4008800123 ) and I was told that authentic NOKIA are not allowed to export to other countries at low prices.  IN this case, how can you import real NOKIA from China with low prices? There must be something wrong.  As far as I know, there are some small trading companies in Shenzhen, Guangzhou or Beijing processing some used NOKIA or second-hand Nokia series and labelled again and resell to other countries as brand-new NOKIA.  Please be careful, everybody. You have to know where their factory is located exactly in China when you import such branded products from China, of couse, a Pre-shipment Inspection or a Factory Inspection is very necessary when your order is large enough.

Good luck, everybody!

I noticed that these suppliers are also the ones that are exporting all the fake Nike, Adidas etc sport shoes.

One of my clients told me that it is illegal to sell refurbished mobile phones in China / from China, is this true?

Just because these trader have gold pass and trustp , this does not mean they are a real company. Ailbaba will give them theses p because they get money for ailbaba it [em6] . I have been scammed by a gold supplier with a trust pass and alibaba did not do anything about infact they remove a lot of my comments as they are trying to protect the scammer.

Site inspection is best, don't forward any money until checks are done by reps and sign contracts.

99% of these supplier sell new phones are not real, some of them even offer phones before they are released by the manufactures (i phone), how can they do this? they are obviously scammers.

Smuggle or not into China, how are the prices possibly be so low?

So for example if goods are smuggled into China, the China buyer needs to take risk and costs smuggling into China so why would China re-export these goods at a lower than market price??

We do sell lots of Brand new original Mobile phones into China (China is a huge market) These buyers pick up from Hong Kong pay Cash and take the goods away, How they bring them into China (smuggle or not) is not our problem.

These buyers dont advertise much in China (its kind of illegal to import them in China as they dont pay duty). So why would they want to sell to overseas from China after taking so much risk when they need the stocks to consume in China.
